Great Building, Location and Property Management

Pros

Elevator, Attrium, location, live in super, location, quiet street

Cons

Pests can be an issue, but they're good about calling an exterminator. Super is a bit grumpy, but will fix things!

Boiling in the winter

Pros

Lovely location. It’s quiet and the super is pretty nice. Cute brick walls too.

Cons

No control over the heat in the winter means it’s hot as h inside. Also no ventilation
